It finally got delivered today. It came in a closed trailer to boot. Only prob is damage to the T top 3 large gouges. Driver says he'll pay to fix w/o ins. Will get checked tomorrow at the body shop. A swift cleaning sure made a big difference. Jumping for joy. Got smogged, titled and registered today also

How the hell did the driver f-up your T-top like that??? Depending on how old the paint job is, that top may not be easy to paint match...

Nice car. I'm sure everyone is curious, how much did you pay for it?

Thanks for the information. This is a good example for guys who think these cars are worth $12K.
